A core value of The Wunderlin Company is capacity-building—creating in our clients’ organization the ability to carry change initiatives forward without requiring an outside resource. Aligned with that value we have developed a series of workshops that mirror own services.
- Facilitating for Results This introductory workshop provides leaders and managers with three days of experiential practice in both the skills of facilitators—asking effective questions, observing groups and making interventions—and the tools of facilitators—brainstorming, multivoting, gap analysis and others. The final day simulates a WorkOut style problem solving process.
- Advanced Models for Facilitation For the facilitator with some level of experience, our Advanced Models workshop enhances capability by working through Roger Schwartz’ Skilled Facilitator models, and introduces more sophisticated group processes such as Appreciati I inquiry and Open Spaces. Advanced Models also customizes to the specific needs and requests of workshop participants with plenty of time for problem solving, Q&A and practice sharing with our very experienced and skilled faculty.
- Coaching as a Leadership Skill Often at the end of a coaching process, our clients will see the value in cascading the approaches of the one-on-one coaching process to a broader population of leaders. Coaching as Leadership Skill provides over two days the practice required to significantly improve manager’s effectiveness in communicating with and developing their associates.
- Customized Leadership Development We have also customized this workshop for several clients to specifically support their leadership development needs.
- Effective Meetings We all spend so much time in meetings… and almost universally find the majority of meetings to be a poor use of time. This half day workshop provides nine practical and immediately applicable practices for improving meeting effectiveness.
- Discover Your Strengths and Put Them to Work Building on Marcus Buckingham’s book Now Discover Your Strengths, this team building workshop enables teams to look at their collective and individual strengths and reorient both their work allocation and leadership development.
- Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most This one-day workshop teaches participants how to have tough conversations with less stress and more success. The course helps participants get a clearer picture of what makes difficult conversations difficult and how to improve the chance of having them productively. The workshop deconstructs difficult conversations into manageable portions and provides practical and actionable tools to take back into the workplace or the homeplace.
- Myers-Briggs Step II® Working in almost any organization today, chances are you have taken the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator®. You know that you are a INFP (Introversion, iNtuition, Feeling, Perception) or an ESTJ (Extraversion, Sensing, Thinking, Judgment) or one of the 14 other combinations of psychological type. But did you know that there is a second version (MBTI – Step 2) that helps people better understanding their unique expression of a particular personality type? The MBTI Step 2 takes each of the 8 scales from Step 1 and breaks them down into 5 sub-scales known as facets. This gives us not 4 ways in which we differ but 40! The Wunderlin Company offers a half-day workshop that focuses on providing a much more thorough analysis of the Step 2 data and its applications in terms of personal development, teams, organizations, conflict, coaching, emotional intelligence and communication.
We offer these workshops both in-house and by subscription.
